(sorry if this is a double post for you, I had a bad cc line for perl6-internals) Problem is the diag message warning users that it will take a while (and it does - on a p4 with 2 gigs of ram i gave up after a few minutes, but didn't get a chance to see where/why it was so slow) is that it doesn't print before or during the 3rd test - so they have no idea why this particular test is stuck or that it should take a while. I should probably follow this up with some patches or something...(see what I can do) ~mcummings
